ABOUT SCHOOL-TEACaING.

T ED. RECORD: Please allow teacher
from Independence county space in the
RECORD to say something about teaching.
Now, many pupils who study we'll, and
Tecite their lessons promptly, fail to make
a correspondingly permanent progress.
The cause for their not retaining the
knowledge gained, is the disjointed man
ner in which the class.work i 8 done.
There is an impression in the school that
good recitation is the end and object of
study. The lesson is learned to be reclted
snd this done, it is dismissed from the
mind. This evil is largely owing to
wrong methods used by the teacher. lie
may so conduct the recitation of to-day
as to wholly obliterate yesterdays
work. We have known pupils to become
50 accustomed to this way of dismissing a
lessoo from memory as fast as recited, as
to be unable at the close of the recitation
to answer questions which they readily
could answer OF the beginning. The best
method to overcome this evil is constant
review. Review to-day what was the les
sons for yesterday, 1t is not the amount
of knowledge that passes through the
mind chat benefits, but the amount that
remains there The great object of all
teaching is to Fl tman for life. With small
pupils, the method of repetition should be
used extensively; and with larger ones,
care should be taken to show the relation
between different parts of the subject, and
TO link each lesson with the knowledge
already gained. "Not how much they
know, but how long they know it, should
be our watchword in ali our work Of in
struction. A. b. BREWSTER.

A BRIDES FATE.-Miss Birdie Meyberg,
prominent aud beautiful belle of St.
Louis, was paralyzed in that city under
most remarkable circumstances. She was
engaged to be married on the 14th of
November to Alfred Gernsfeld, of Albuquer.
que, N. NJ. The wedding was to have
been celebrated in elaborate style, and
Miss Meyberg aud her. mother were engag.
ed in making purchases for the happy event.
On Thursday last Mrs. Meyberg and her
daughter were shopping in the principal
stores of st. Louis and finally entered a
store on Franklin avenue. Mrs. Meyberg
left her daughter for few minutes, and
the young lady called for some slippers.
She was leaning over, trying on her we'd
ding slippers, when she fell over in an ap-
parent stupor. The clerks thought the
young lady had tainted, and applied cold
water to her face, but she did not revive.
A hack was summoned and the UNCONSCIOUS
girl was carried to her home. Mrs. Mey-
berg returned to the store, ignorant of
what had occurred. One of the clerks
told her that her daughter had dropped
dead. The poor mother was almost over.
come, but regained her composure and was
soon by the bedside of the unconscious
girl. Several physicians were summoned,
and after long consultation they decided
that Miss Meyberg's right side had been
paralyzed, and gave as their opinion that il
was caused by rush of blood, caused by
over-excitement. The young lady is still
unconscious, and there is little hope o.
her recovery. Her intended hush and is OF

Sisters Love Brothers Better Than Brothers
Love Sisters.
GSap Francisco chronicle !

A girl is generally very unselfish to her
brother. You don't often hear of a young
fellow giving up his pocket money to his
sister; he usually growls if she wants him
to take her to the theatre. But if boys
in little trouble his sister will stand by
him like brick. She'll not only give her
pocket money, but she'll go and wheedle
some more out of her father to give it to
him. She'll f1b, she'll prevaricate, she'll
beg. He'll hang about outside until she
gets it and comes and gives it to him.
Then he will grab his hat and bolt out of the
house. And she does not mind if he does
not thank her particularly. He's her
brother, and--well-a woman always looks at
kindness done for man as its own re-
ward. A boy can generally wheedle money
out of his mother. But if she can't give
it to him out of the household cash, or her
own pocket, she has tendency to spoil
all by telling his father what she wants the
money for. A girl cannot succeed with
her mother very often, but she does not
often fail with the old man. And she's
always more ingenious in inventing neces-
sities for it. A girl, with all the more
limited acknowledged needs of womankind
for money, will find at any time reason
able excuse for requiring it than q man
with innumerable natural wants. God
bless the sisters anyway. Any one of them
is worth whole family of brothers.

In Madison is the eldest lutheran ChurcI

MIR. ST. u. .L.Grlnnan.vriting u. to the New
York Observer says in its last issue:
''In your Obssrrer for Oct. IS there was a
statement that the Trappe Lutheran church
was the oldest Lutheran church in America.
1t was stated to have been erected in 1743.
In 1870 party of Germans consisting of
twenty nine families, who were employed
by Gov. Spotswood in working gold mines
at Germanna, Spotsylvauia county, Va,
suddenly left him. Among them was
young minister, also an old one named Han
ger. From Germanna they went West and
settled near the Robertson River, in Mad
ison Co., Va; here in 1741 they built a
very nice brick church which is now stand
ing; this church has an organ which was
presented to it by some people in Germany.
and among the subscribers, who helped pay
for it, was the King of Sweden. It has
two communion services, one of silver and
the other of pewter; the former was giveu
by merchant in Lubbock, and many Of the
pieces have been stolen. The silver and
pewter pieces were kept in chest in the
church, and consequently have been expos
ed to mauy dangers. The inscription bear
ing the date is On the inside Of the church."
